Pastor Jeff Shellenberger
Senior Pastor
Jeff comes from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and has been here in Arizona since 2001. He is married to his lovely wife, Sherry.
He completed ministry training through Master’s Commission International in 1995 at Phoenix First Assembly. He then received his degree in drug and alcohol counseling to open doors into reaching the people God has called him to. His calling is to reach the hurting and fringe elements of society with the hope of Jesus Christ.
Having ministered as an Associate, Youth and Senior Pastor in Philadelphia, Denver and Phoenix-his heart has always drawn him to the outcast and forgotten. “I started to realize that if I wanted to know Jesus more, I had to be with those that Jesus spent time with. There is nothing to compare with seeing the light come in someone’s eyes and realizing you’re seeing Jesus look back at you.”
His continuing vision is to create a church family where all economic, social, political, and racial groups can worship God together as the brothers and sisters we are.
